Wot! No Orange!

This Poppy was supposed to be a bright orange colour but, as you can see, it didn't quite work out that way. Still pretty though.
I suppose even Poppies can be unpredictable, is that right Ukulelehaley?

The extra is there because I thought a collage would have diminished it's effect. I heard the twin engined aircraft overhead, put my camera phone onto zoom, I thought, pointed and clicked. Couldn't see what I was getting but it turned out to be this 'Star Trek' effect with the craft heading towards a sun that is radiating highly destructive radioactive waves of dust particles. 
It is, of course, just the thin cloud and our own very precious sun, just in case you were worried.
